The frustrating thing is that Brizzle really don’t look all that. Game there for the taking is we were able to freshen up later on. Kayal needs to be very very careful.
Kayal did two great early runs... First time he was completely on his own and got crowded out - Second time the runner (Gallagher?) didnt make the neccessary movement
Booking has put him on the edge but I'll take that with it 0-0 - Had he done nothing then Bristol City could well have scored
Havent noticed him much more (it is a bloody high camera) but then he did put in an excellent challenge to stop a breakaway after our set piece didnt work, was even better for me based on the fact that he could easily have been off had he got it wrong
Oshilaja is doing an excellent job at right back alongside the dependable Lockyer / Pearce - Bonne is continuing to prove to me why he's second choice Striker and Cullen is having a real good game
As FA said, no worse than many others tonight. He needs game time, it's clear he has ability.
He’s given the ball away several times , been booked and made two stupid tackles outside the box . He’s struggling
Its also his first start of the season after two very short cameo appearances - He's got minutes for Israel but he's still going to be very rusty at the moment

You’re absolutely right . No arguments there but at the moment he is struggling. Just an observation
What a panicky lot you are. We have lost two players, Forster-Caskey and Field, neither of them automatic choices for the team. Our squad is bigger and better than it has been for many seasons. Look at who we would have been bringing on in midfield two years ago: Reeves, Marshall, Crofts, Charles-Cook ...
dreadful game made so much worse by having two players injured. we look the slightly better team but that aint saying much.
when it comes to Kayal he has struggled, a run or two with no idea how to pass the ball. thought his challenge for the booking had to be made as forstercasky was completely out of his position at left back.

Injuries - Taylor, Williams, Hemed, Page, Purrington, JFC, Field....
Mind you, as he's serving a "touchline ban" he should be OK as long as he stays in centre midfield ...
I will take a point tonight !
More of the same. A point will be wonderful.
In hindsight, losing Josh for a couple of months probably cost us an automatic promotion spot.

The game as a whole has been pretty scrappy. But he has been no worse than anyone else.
If you look at his movement off the ball he actually has got himself inbetween the lines on a few occasions but has not been found with a pass.
They've committed 5 fouls, but we've only won 4?!
We've completed 6/8 dribbles to their 2/3
We've won 63% of aerial duels.
